Ladies, watch out! Men’s Rights Redditor warspite88 is on to you! Your painted faces don’t fool him! Your concealer cannot conceal the truth! He knows your lips aren’t really that red! He knows your eyelids aren’t really that blue!
Yes, that’s right: it’s time for another angry MRA rant explaining to us why women wearing makeup oppresses men, somehow.
In a post with the delightfully over-the-top title “Men’s rights are directly tied to the power of paint and powder. Ill explain,” warspite88 sets forth his theory:
It is my belief that women have become so beautiful through the use of makeup that most women and men are influenced dramatically and view women more as goddess and men as dogs. The power of makeup has helped to fuel a war against men’s basic human rights.
Uh, what?
Lets face it, men are ugly compared to women, right? Many men feel sorry for women or think it is oppressive that so many women wear makeup.
I’m pretty sure most men don’t get angry when a woman puts on lipstick. That’s just you, dude. Well, you and a thousand other MRAs.
Well, if you dig really deep into history and our modern use of makeup, you will see it points to one key element of humanity, Power.
Wait. I thought female power resided in the ass, not the face. Didn’t Warren Farrell write a book about that or something?
Power to attract those you want (or label unwanted attention as harassment as a result of powder power)
Powder power? Is that like miniskirt power? You are Warren Farrell, aren’t you?
Power to influence Power to feel good about yourself (vain or not) Just a few examples
Dude, sorry to interupt your little rant here, but would it kill you to put periods at the end of your sentences?
Makeup is expensive, a huge industry, so money and making others pay for your power is in high demand.
I had no idea the women were so devious. Making men pay for their makeup, which they then use to make men pay for … more makeup. Lather, rinse, repeat. It’s ingenious. At least until the makeup-using manipulator is found dead in her apartment, lipstick tube still in her hand, crushed by the gigantic boxes of makeup she conned poor male suckers into buying for her.
[W]e see it in every day life, in relationship, those trying to get relationships. we see it in business, court rooms, churches, places of power. We see it in schools, young girls even. We see it in the media oh yes those sexy Fox women, wonder why those women were hired? Why they put on so much makeup? Take a guess boys, take a guess white knights. Take a guess MRMs.
You seem a little fixated on the Fox News women.
The power of paint and powder to influence others minds, their reactions, their actions, it is one of the most deeply rooted human aspects of power projection yet few ever take it seriously. The power of makeup to make women beautiful to seduce and control a horny man or a white knight has built kingdoms, it has destroyed kingdoms, it has had major political influence around the world for all of history.
Behold, the most powerful woman in history:
Weird. I feel an almost irresistible urge to buy that woman some more makeup. MUS T RESIST.
There is a reason why most women use makeup, because it gives them power, subtle, acceptable power that few men can ignore.
Women’s sexuality, it is natural and men are pawns to it because men are wired to view women as sexual objects. … So when men see a woman dolled up with makeup more often than not his head falls head over heels with lust (not love) desire (not caring).
His HEAD falls HEAD over HEELS with LUST.
His HEAD.
Let’s just think about this for a second. How does a HEAD fall head over heels? A HEAD DOESN’T HAVE HEELS IT IS JUST A HEAD.
Does it borrow some heels for the occasion? Does it hold the heels in its mouth? So many questions.
The power of beauty and charisma that comes with paint and powder changes the world.
So how is it related to mens rights?
Oh, this oughtta be good.
Go outside, yes leave your computer. Go to any public place and watch people. Watch how men react to women who are dressed sexy or wear more makeup.
Uh, ok. But then I’d have to put on some pants.
Or just watch this stuff on TV.
Yeah, on second thought, let’s not go outside at all. Let’s base our entire knowledge of how men and women interact on old sitcoms and Fox News. You know, the news channel with all those sexy Fox women.
Anyway, so how does this relate to Men’s Rights?
Men are ugly compared to women with paint and powder right? How dare men show attraction to beautiful women, they must be pigs! Right?
Uh, what? Is this your actual argument? Are you actually trying to make some sort of sense? Or are you just typing?
White Knights love beautiful women on the outside , oh yes the white knight shield of justice is like a mirror to reflect the beauty of any female even a woman who murders her husband or rapes a boy.
Wat.
But a white knights sword is dripping with the blood of innocent men who dare even attempt equality with a beautiful woman.
Damn, this got dark, really dark, all of a sudden.
The power of paint and powder, it has affected every one of you reading this at some point in your life. it will again.
Well, not if one of those white knights has stabbed you to death, I mean, yikes! But let’s not get hung up on details.
It is not evil or wrong to wear makeup in my opinion but it is important that we become aware of how much of a paint and powder worshiping society we have become.
Is it any wonder men’s rights and well being have been left far behind in society that craves women and their paint and powder? Just saying.
Just saying?
JUST SAYING?!!
THAT’S how your ending this post?
Dude, your cockamamie thesis is that evil makeup-wearing, husband-murdering, boy-raping women rule the world, while easily manipulated white knights are going around wantonly stabbing any Men’s Rights Activists they can find.
And you end your rant with “just saying?”
Really? I mean, if you’re going to put it out there, fucking put it out there! Commit to it! End with something, you know, dramatic.
“By Grabthar’s hammer, by the suns of Warvan, you shall be avenged!”
You know, something like that. Something cool.
End strong! End big!
Just saying.
Oh, and in case you’re wondering about that Grabthar’s hammer thing:
—
Well, as we all know, a woman is always responsible when a man does/writes something terrible.
In the sense that it hasn’t been conclusively proven that this didn’t happen, yes.
In the sense that there’s any reason whatsoever to think that it did happen, no.
This can happen. I suggested on a previous post that Jen93 should win a ‘I laughed so much my head fell off award’. I did that because that totally happened to me,well it actually sort of rolled past my heels and it was after seeing something funny.On second thoughts I’ve never seen it happen to man while looking at a woman. Citation needed warspite88.
I did trip over an uneven bit of pavement once because I was so busy checking someone out that I wasn’t paying attention to where I was going, but my head remained quite firmly attached, so.
I really feel like its possible that warspite88 is a misogynist who is so threatened by the idea that women cannot be completely controlled by him that he comes up with a bizarre conspiracy theory in which evil women use the “power of paint and powder” to destroy men and deny them basic human rights in order to portray himself as a victim, rather than the frightened woman-hater he is.
Just saying.
I never wear makeup…. I used to wear eyeliner but now it’s just such a drag…
On the other hand, I DO dye my hair. O_O Yes MRAs of the world, my hair truly isn’t that blue! Tremble before me!
I really feel like it’s possible that garvand is warspite, or they’re twins psychically linked by their hatred of women, and that’s how garvand just knew that he had to come poop in this thread.
I’m just saying, it’s a possibility.
@garvanthemad
If you’re being serious,how the hell did you come to that conclusion. (no question mark because I actually don’t want an answer)
If you’re joking,you’re not funny.
Same here, but the person I was checking was a cat.
I was totally that kid who would say “look, a kitty!” and then run headlong into traffic in pursuit of said kitty.
Also OT but HOLY FUCKING SHIT I CAN’T EVEN: http://thoughtcatalog.com/janet-bloomfield/2014/07/seven-ways-black-sociology-shows-what-is-wrong-with-feminism/
First time I ever heard Mr K do a belly laugh was when I’d been so distracted talking to kitties I got to the tram stop just in time to see the thing leaving and said OH FUCK.
Leum: As far as eyeliner goes, Rimmel always seemed to me like a relatively cheap and decent makeup brand. It’s available in most drug stores and big stores in the US. If you like the purple eyeliner and want something a little nicer, I’ve always liked Urban Decay’s eyeliner.
Ally S: Well, to give JB credit, she doesn’t use the word “wh*re” even once.
@ Kittehs
I may have in my YouTube saved folder a video in which a certain pretty boy with a fondness for hats and corgis stops in the middle of filming a “look at me being a super cool pop star touring foreign countries” documentary to pet a random kitty that’s just hanging out in the park.
Maybe he’s MODOK? MODOK’s head could easily go head over heels. Just sayin’.
garvant,
No.
Just, no.
Yeah, well, that’s just, like, YOUR opinion, dude.
And I feel like it’s totally possible that you are just a shitferbrainz. But my opinion is based in demonstrable facts, where as yours is just assfax. See how that works?
Judgybitch wrote something quite long and didn’t use the word whore once.I wonder if some poor innocent who’s about to cross her path is going to get a whore ridden rant,she must have been ready to burst after writing that.
Oh, and writing something minus the word whore doesn’t make it any less crap.
Well, this changes my view of my own life. Instead of my bathroom sink countertop being, well, my bathroom sink countertop, I now realize it’s more like Cheyenne Mountain! Good thing no treaty has restrained MY arsenal. I feel an urge to go out and buy more to stockpile.
I’m starting to think that these men (MRAs) don’t really like women very much.
s/
Warspittle seems to be deeply angry about the paint ‘n’ powder issue. He does appear to view himself as inherently undesirable, which is a sad place to be. Moreover, he seems to feel badly about his being attracted to women, and blames them for the feelings. Most unfortunate.
RE: Lea
LBT, that’s beautiful.
Thanks. My tattoos commemorate my wedding, my lovely husband, and also visual timelines of both births and deaths in our system. They say deeper truths than this vessel alone ever will!
RE: garvanthemad
Actually, if anything I feel like it’s possible he was raped by an older woman when he was a youth, and as an adult had a terrible wife.
Just saying.
What the hell does that have to do with makeup? I got raped by an older dude when I was youth; does that mean I can suddenly start frothing at the mouth over Viagra or something? Even if this dude was raped, that doesn’t make his bullshit any less shitty.
I can just picture him doing that! Also you NEED to post that video here.
So the obvious solution is that men should wear makeup and spend just as much time trying to be attractive as women. I could get into that.
Ironically I read that the men’s cosmetic industry sales have gone through the roof and I somehow doubt if any of these morons had girlfriends they’d be thrilled if, say, they were going to a wedding and she dressed down and wore no make-up at all. I can just hear the words ‘You’re not going out looking like that!!!’ shrieking in my ears lol. Deary me. They don’t half shoot themselves in the foot with all this vacuous ranting.
